FastFire SUMA Pro Survival Kit

Thursday, March 7th, 2013

You may have run across the name SOLKOA, a company which specializes in SERE training and products. The thing about SOLKOA is that they concentrate on Government clients. But a few years ago they launched FastFire to transition their kit to the commercial customer. I’m a huge fan of everything they do, but the SUMA container is top notch. In this case, the contents of the kit are packed in the SUMA container.

The FastFire SUMA Pro Survival Kit is a professional grade survival kit previously only available to government clients through SOLKOA but now offered through the commercial side, FastFire.

Solkoa continue to develop new SERE products and training courses. One of the n concepts they are cultivating is modular SERE kits. These allow the user to select modules based on mission and TTPs. It also means that modules can be updated quickly rather than replacing entire kits when dated items expire.

SUMA Container from Solkoa

Friday, October 29th, 2010

Solkoa’s Ultralight Multi-purpose Aluminum (SUMA) container measures 2-1/2″w x 4″l x 1-1/2″d and is a great way to package your survival kit or other small items that need to be protected from crushing as well as the elements. It is machined from a solid billet of 6061 aluminum and then hard anodized and can be used for cooking in a pinch.

The SUMA container is available in a variety of finishes and can also be laser etched. Additionally, as you can see in the photo, special lids can be machined with raised symbols. However, a lot of guys using these are applying sticky Velcro to the lid and attaching a flag or other near recognition symbol to the face.

Faststrike Maxi

Saturday, August 8th, 2009

Designed to be complimentary with the Fastfire fire starter blocks, the Faststrike Maxi is a larger version of the model that comes with a Fire Starting kit.

Faststrike from Solkoa

The Firestrike starters produce sparks in excess of 5500°F in any weather, at any altitude. The Maxi model is designed to over 10,000 fires. There are no breaking parts (plastic) or failure points (springs that can break). Additionally, the 4″ carbon steel hacksaw blade serves as striker but the blade also provides multi-functionality for cutting & fabricating materials (metals, plastics, wood).

The Faststrike Maxi is available from Solkoa.
